Short Rest: Behind the Screens: Pathfinder 2e

this was so awesome, more Pathfinder!!

Accidentally listened to this in Axford-Powers order, I love these goofs :’) Jake’s passionate artist build, incredible. Signed, a Cinnamon-addict.

Please do a Star Wars one-shot with Murph as a Wookie, Jake as a failed human entrepreneur and Caldwell as an assassin droid.

I would love to hear these characters

BEGGING you to play these PCs

The crunch is so satisfying- I played PF 1e during the 4e drought and it sounds like 2e has a lot going for it. Very cool!

Pleaseee play pf2e

Still early awaiting this mixed bag!!!

Just saying would love to see a one shot!

When is this happening???????????? WHEN!!!???!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I was started playing some Pathfinder 2e myself so I am hungry for some good actual plays in the system and would love to see a NADDPOD mini series or even just a one shot!

hi! i’m people and I am interested!!

Scarl sounds like a Goblin version of live action Shaggy from scooby doo and I love it!!!

PF2E is my favorite rpg system, and I'm glad to see y'all taking a look at it.

Every time I’ve played P2E, I’ve found it super anti-roleplay and boring, but that could just be the people I was playing with… I’m hesitant to get back into it

I’ve been obsessed with P2E lately, I hope y’all do a mini-series or more! Already in love with these characters!

Love it!

Any news on a Pathfinder mini-series or even just one shot? Would love to see the two crew jump into this system. Has a lot of roleplay potential that is difficult to capture mechanically in a system like DnD

Honestly I always thought Pathfinder was an anti-roleplaying system. I hate boring dungeon crawls. But Ya'll have made me feel like there could be some fun here.

I'll absolutely listen to and enjoy whatever they make, but if this is going where lots of us assume it is, Pathfinder feels like a step in the wrong direction to me. Absolutely nothing against the game or people who play it, but for a show like NADDPOD you want less crunch, not more. If they're seriously looking at other options I'd be more excited about Savage Worlds (and I'd be interested to see what Powergaming Emily makes of a system with no classes where character advancement is totally open) or PBTA.

I can't wait to see more Behind the Screen episodes! Would love to learn more about other table top games overall. Also if you guys ever decide to do a mini Pathfinder campaign, I know I would love to see it ❤️

Seconding the ICON recommendation

Personally love the idea of a Pathfinder mini-series! 🤓

if you were looking at other systems for future Behind the Screens episodes, i think you guys could really sink your teeth into ICON

i'd been meaning to learn p2e for a while, and this episode was exactly the intro i needed! thanks emily!

You guys inspired me to take a look into pathfinder for the first time, and im hooked! Ild love to see the dungeon docent and those three wonderful misfits in a session (or a miniseries, or...)

OMG Emily! you did so good explaining P2E! I been trying to learn for some days now but no luck! Hope you do a part 2 once you learn more :)

If anyone is curious about the inspo for Skarl’s voice I don’t know Warcraft and was able to find these gems https://youtu.be/en-kmYqEEbc https://youtu.be/2CKz1-gr3vo

Can't wait to see some NADPOD pathfinder content

I would listen to some Pathfinder one shots. I care more about your fun personalities than exact systems.

I absolutely LOVED this episode, watching people building characters is so inspiring and exciting! It’s perfect for both players and GMs and frankly anyone who needs to make characters for any reason—writers, artists, etc. I would LOVE for this to become a whole new series the way Dungeon Court did.

Would absolutely love to hear a campaign for pf2e I've been super interested in swapping over to it with my group.

Absolutely wild neighbor energy! You could call this party a cul-de-sac haha. Bring back the Dungeon Docent! Promote her to Dungeon Doctor after doing all this research! (Also if anyone says anything bad about the way Emily said Shadenfreude I'm going to force you to read the names of small towns in upstate New York)

Will Caldwell draw this party on the next stream please? : )

Yes plz

Pathfinder 2e definitely has a bit of a different vibe, but definitely excited to see these little freaks in action!

I’m really digging this, hoping to hear more! I love learning the new mechanics

I got invited to join a Pathfinder 2e game and this is what finally pushed me over the edge to join the Patreon. DOITDOITDOIT

I would LOVE to hear more of this ragtag crew of weirdos! And thank you Emily for taking the time to learn and then teach us Pathfinder. I was always curious what it’s like, this was really helpful. Could easily imagine a mini arc like hot boys or oops all monks, but also much more, if you’re angry with wotc and would like to switch to another system. I’m down!

Y'all talking about Pathfinder is what pushed me to subscribe to the Patreon. So exciting you're willing to give it a look, and seem excited by what you see!

Emily I’d pay for a once a month pathfinder game tier on patreon if you dm

Melora please, bless us with this beautiful, amazing, absolutely batshit trio. Campaign, mini-arc, one shot, ANYTHING, I would love to see the chaos unleashed for even just a single session. And it’d be really fun to see you all try out a soft intro into P2E! Y’all really got me into 5e, and I’d follow y’all to basically any other system if you ever wanted to branch out!

Honestly I want this to be Campaign 4... but a one shot would be almost as cool

So I haven't seen any one talking about this but this doesn't have anything to do with the new ogl bs does it?

I need this one shot so bad. I would also be glad to have something similar to this with Star Wars 5e and Starfinder. Emily giving us a deep dive into different systems and Murph playing a weird little guy is what I need.

I have been looking for a new system to nerd out over! Emily has sold me on learning this😍 (also I would LOVE a mini series)

I need the one shot

Awesome characters 👌

This is so cool!! I would love to see the shenanigans these characters get up to in this system 🥰

Would be a fun one-shot!

PLEEEEASE run this game!! I love these characters!! Also, thank you Emily for all the explanations, it was amazing!!

I definitely do want to hear them talk about other systems and I think this is a good format BUT... if we don't get a pf2e mini series I'm going to cry

You all need to play this system

Is there some where people (maybe Emily) recommend I start with looking at pathfinder? it seems like such a huge prospect

GIVE US THE MINI SERIES

would love to see a Pathfinder oneshot or even mini series!

Pathfinder goblins are the BEST!

I LOVE THIS! Those characters sound fun as can be! I'd love to see what character Emily creates. This has really got me interested in trying pathfinder. Thank you for the fun short rest!

this sounds so cool! please do a one shot, hearing how it actually runs would be so interesting!!!

YALL NEED TO RUN A ONE SHOT

This system seems so cool and fun. I neeeeed a one shot if not a whole campaign! I feel like this system would really suit Em’s DM style too

with WotC trying their best to kill their own games, just imagine "NAPFPod" also please do as much pathfinder as you see fit! id love to learn pathfinder, and id love to learn it the same way i learned DnD, through NADDPod

Absolutely please play this system with these characters. I need more high-pitched Chaos Murph in my life.

Awesome stuff! I would love to hear a one shot

I am SO down for adventures with this new crew in what seems like an awesome system!

please do a pathfinder mixed bag!! I love DMILY!

This sounds so amazing. I would love a mixed bag and if it goes well then I would absolutely love an actual campaign of this. Also Phillys Live show was amazing!

Would LOVE to see these characters/more Pathfinder!

Omg I need to see these characters in action! Thank you so much Emily for this delight

Definetly would love to seeyou guys do a Pathfinder series. Love your 5e stuff but the PF2e character creation really seems to fit your group dynamic and the style of characters and shenanigans you get up to.

I am an avid board gamer, and I think that Emily just did one of the most interesting and oddly absent things among the tabletop hobbies: a pitch! So often, the thematic or bare bones premise of a game is presented, which lacks the deep-dive into what makes individual rules beneficial and detrimental. Both the in-depth analysis of what the rules MEAN for the game system alongside the question-response format with the rest of the NADDPOD crew make for a far more interesting understanding of the reasons to spring for or avoid a different game (system). Maybe I should think about coming up with similar pitches for reviewing or suggesting board games. Anyways, I write all this to say, thank you Emily! Allow me to add on to the pile of positive feedback you've been receiving!

Please play more of this i love pathfinder and more big shows like yours need to explore more systems. Love you guys thanks.

NAPFPOD when

Was inspired by this and the main ep to have a look at the core rulebook (I'd be keen to see both more Behind the Screens and also Pathfinder one shots!), and re nat 20s found this on page 10: "You also often score a critical success by rolling a 20 on the die when attempting a check (before adding anything). Likewise, rolling a 1 on the dice when attempting a check often results in a critical failure" That's literally as far as I read though, so don't know how that would look in practice. Maybe best of both worlds though?

Obligatory comment to play pathfinder one shot as a mixed bag or mini series. Also got me very interested in pathfinder. Thanks for the resources too :)

Rise of The Rule Lords responded in their podcast!

https://open.spotify.com/episode/24SPUci4OERyf724M2LIg4?si=qCZpbIVFTnqgAS6Dg_dKfw&utm_source=copy-link

Joined as a patron because I’m primarily a pathfinder 2 player. The system is amazing, I think you captured the attractive parts well. I think some of the wilder ideas (jamming something in the crocodiles mouth) are not covered by existing rules. I run a lot of games for kids, who are similarly creative, and some DM fiat will probably be required. The system -is- structured to enable it (e.g. any skill/class ability/etc can be used to do anything). So you could use your cooking lore check to try to neutralize a poison (skill vs dc) and it would work in the rules. But the DM has to say it would work (absent some skill feat I’m not aware of).

Got excited enough about you guys trying out PF2e that I subscribed! Fingers crossed for a oneshot. Very fun hearing how excited Emily was, and Jake being a sport about the changes.

I would love to see atleast a Pathfinder one-shot!

Just think, if they switch to Pathfinder, they won't have to change the name of the podcast! 😃

This was such a good approach to introducing a new system. I had always thought I didn't want to learn another TTRPG system unless it's something more collaborative or rules-light, but Emily definitely sold me on Pathfinder 2E. Also I love Murph's enthusiasm about getting to play a goblin.

I am giving my obligatory comment saying I’d love a one shot of of this.

I had never heard your podcast (though I have seen a lot of you on Dropout!). I signed up because I'm so excited for PF2e content.

Here to to say that I'd love to hear you folks give Pathfinder 2e a real go. I expect listening to any ttrpg you folks play to be a good time, but from what I'm hearing this gives you a lot more tools to work with.

Seriously, this system sounds amazing! As a D&D purist, I was skeptical, but it's actually not poison lol. Murph hit it on the nose saying that this would be interesting for people who have gotten tired of 5e's simplicity. Please play as these fellas! I'm on board! Also, thank you Emily for all the hard work! Still the GOAT!

Bring these freaks to life please!

Got major Patrick Warburton vibes from Jake’s voice (and that can never be something less than a compliment )

This sounds awesome! Cannot wait to hear more and be apart of the adventure

FYI Nat 1s and Nat 20s do matter. They decrease and increase the degree of success. For example, if your bonus to attack is high and normally you hit with most attacks but you rolled a nat 1 this reduces the normal hit to a miss. If you roll an attack that missed but you rolled a nat 20 this would make the attack hit. If you roll for a strike and get 10 over their AC this would be a crit, but if you rolled a nat 1 this crit would now turn into a normal hit.

I made a Pathfinder 2e character for my bud's new campaign last night...only took us 4 hours!

I want this so bad. I just made a level 10 Witch that can fight with his hair. The three-action process is AMAZING! Also, the fact that you can choose how many actions to cast certain spells to make them beefier is so cool!

Full support for the 2 crew. This system sounds dope.

So, I'm guessing this is in response to the Wizards debacle. I don't think all of theD&D creators are going to have to jump ship, it seems Wizards are back pedaling like crazy. But, if the Two Crew feels that's what they need to do I'm all in! Personally I don't care what system is used, I'm here because you guys are funny and talented people. I'm happy to go with you wherever this journey leads.

I want to hear this game!!

I have been curious about Pathfinder recently and I’m super excited to try it now!! Really excited to hear y’all play these characters!!! Great job Emily!!!!!

These character builds really help contextulise the way that gameplay will feel. I feel like my player group would be resistant to change, but the idea of solo seshing level ups to make there characters the way they want is waaaay satisfying in this system.

Pathfinder is a little more tough but I'd trust you four to tackle it no problem at this point

I started playing pathfinder about a year ago and honestly I love to see more people getting into it.

Whatever it is you want to do, I listen because you're all entertaining people and I enjoy the content. That said, I'm a big fan of PF2E and I'd love to hear you all run through a side quest in it at some point. Have a nice day. :)

I really really would love to see a campaign with these characters! It would be really interesting to learn alongside y’all so I could eventually bring this game to my players. Love the content and love having Emily as THE host

Really fun! Not sure I’m ready for a full pf2e campaign yet but would love an Emily run one shot using this system. Hot boy summer is hands down one of my top 3 favorite dnd things of all time and would love to see Emily’s play system with these outrageously decked out characters.

Yes! I need this campaign in my life! We are just now learning pathfinder 2e and super excited for this.

Is Jake just that serial killer from jujitsu kaisen that wants to make furniture from his enemies bones? 🤣

Are you guys thinking of doing a campaign with those characters? Because they sound hilarious!

Please for the absolute love of dice Christ play those characters

Listening to the start of NADDPOD really helped me learn about D&D and got me interested enough to try it myself. I've been really curious about Pathfinder, so I'd be thrilled to passively learn about it while enjoying a oneshot for you guys!

I’d love to see more pathfinder

I'd love to see you guys try it out! That trio is too fun to just fade away

I can’t wait to see these characters in action. I also can’t wait for the reaction when a character inevitably dies from a failed shenanigan, as most of my experience with pathfinder is that it’s a pretty deadly system at times.

Simply could not be more excited to have you jumping into the world of Pathfinder! It’s so so fun and customizable, and could be so exciting to try, especially for the more experienced players among you! Now to combine Pathfinder and Starwars 5e and get you to play Starfinder! 😍

I’m very into this, I would love to hear some pathfinder games. It would be pretty cool if campaign 4 was pf2e, I learned how to play DND 5e from this show so that’s kinda how I would need to learn pathfinder too

I will be trying Pathfinder 2e now

This was amazing to listen to. Any continued content with these 3 characters and Emily as DM would be awesome!

Murph’s character reminds me of Junkrat from Overwatch!

I'm super excited to eventually hear y'all play some Pathfinder!!!! Pathfinder has been my preferred system since it came out. :)

Would LOVE to see these characters in action. There was something very organic about these two episodes and you guys diving head first into unknown waters. Very refreshing. I would love to see you try out this and other systems (PbtA? Shadow of the Demon Lord? Whitehack?) as ultimately I just don’t like 5e very much.

been talking to other fans of the pod and everyone is so excited about the prospect of y’all getting into pathfinder. hearing y’all learn 5e in real time was huge for my understanding of the system. if you’re worried about alienating people, know that we’re here for YOU not d&d!

This would be such a fun trio to listen to!

Just wanted to let Jake know, I played a skald that was a heavy metal bard that inspired rage for pathfinder 2e. PCGen.org is a great resource for creating characters.

Has anyone ever heard Cask and Bev’s dad on the same pod?

Would absolutely love to see these 3 maniacs for a mixed bag!

+1 for a mixed bag of this gang with emily in the dm seat! this was amazing!

I hope you all decide to do this as a mixed bag, I'd love to see these 3 in action!

This voice that Murph is using is very reminiscent of Aabria

I'd love to see this as a mixed bag :D

This sounds amazing. I’m ready for 2 shot or a full on mini Emily campaign!

Emily is so so rad for this and I’m PRAYING we get a campaign

A decade ago I was an avid Pathfinder 1 player having come from 3.5 originally. Later I picked up 5th edition as a way to play with people new to TTRPGs and of course we have a lot of fun, but the way that Pathfinder 2.0 was described to me originally as it came out seemed like it would be a major hurdle to learn, so I had never picked it up because what I had was "Good enough". Your presentation on how PF 2 worked, and the characters that you guys created... It instantly brought back that feeling of creativity and crunchy fun that I'd forgotten Pathfinder gave me. I am absolutely going to be picking up some books on this ruleset, and I would love so much to see these three characters brought to life with the hilarious, earnest soul that you all are so good at creating, and I'd also love to learn the rules of the game alongside you all. I've seen online discussions on the two systems, I've seen YouTube videos describing 2.0, none of that brought me around to the idea of switching systems the way that you guys excitedly chatting about mechanics and characters did.

If the goblin wants to chuck bombs around, look into the Alchemist Dedication feat.

I want more of that goblin freak

I miss the side campaigns, I'd love to listen to Emily GM 6-10 episodes of this crew as a side thing! Dungeon Court has taken over the main feed!

We definitely need a trinivale esk pathfinder campaign that fills some of the gaps between main campaign eps

This was really fun! I don’t know the first thing about Pathfinder, and it was great to learn. Thanks, Emily, for the research. I would love to hear a one-shot with these characters!

PATHPOD

So psyched to hear you all discuss this! And as an aside, I had no idea that Pathfinder had FF8-style gunblades! That is wonderful and amazing!

Loved both episodes! I’d definitely listen to an arc with y’all playing PF2e

Honestly, with all the shit WotC is pulling rn with licensing and pulling the rug out from independent creators, I'm 100% on board with more Pathfinder content. Seems like it would have way more opportunity for shenanigans that the Crew loves to try anyways (maybe Caldwell won't be blown off of towers, or his frog friendship will actually work? Lol).

holy shit, Murph's goblin voice was had me DYING with laughter, especially when Emily was reading the stats he was trained in. "Intimidation..." - "I'll KILL YOU"

I really look forward to these guys playing something in Pathfinder 2e! Wait until the discover free archetype rules so they can customize their characters even further!

Id loooove if y’all did a mixed bag (at least!) of this! Ive never played before and would love to hear it in action, sounds cool as hell

This sounds awesome I can't wait for this!

These episodes were extremely fun to listen to and it was cool to see how excited everyone was about the system and character creation! Would definitely be ok with more Pathfinder content!

Being a great crafter is also awesome for the transferring runes ability, god the depth you can get into with PF2e characters is so fun

Wanted to add my voice and say I loved these episodes and would be very excited to see more PF2 content! And also for anyone who wants to try it but is feeling intimidated, the Beginner Box they mentioned is really incredible and has everything you need to play up to level 3.

Yes, please!! So looking forward to this - especially since I'm looking to learn the PF2e as well!

I would love to see a play test mixed bag that would be fucking awesome

I heard a lot about PF2e lately (for obvious reasons), but I've been playing and running 5e for many years and planned to stick with that because that's what both my players and I know and are comfortable with. The main feed episode this week sparked my interest, but after hearing the character creations on the short rest, I was sold and ended up getting the PF2e beginner's box. I'm a lazy GM and don't like to change things, but Emily's (and everyone else's) excitement was contagious and her explanations were very easy to understand. I've also played SW5e a few times as well and those comparisons helped a ton. Thank you 2 Crew for inspiring this set-in-their-ways GM to try something new!

Hello, so I'm in a campaign that uses a different system than 5e and it's called Savage worlds. If everyone liked Pathfinder I think they would love savage worlds

Pathfinder 2e looks sexy 😎

This is an insane cut but as Caldwell was talking in character voice i could only think of Arte, that dog that owned the curio shop in Webkinz. The voice is so similar

I would love a pathfinder campaign, since it would teach me how the system worked at a basic level which would make jumping in easier

I will pay in blood for a campaign with these characters. Just tell me how many gallons and it'll be done

Emily this is your chance, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE run a Pathfinder 2e game with Mario characters so you can claim your own characters for Naddpod pool as Murph added DK and Caldwell added Sonic. If you don't hurry then the weird bailiff dude may steal the idea like he steals tuckers scraps

I would love if Pf2e (or other system) is used in place as the story that would be created would be awesome. They didn't even touch any of the Free Architype stuff (from what I remember) and there are some fun ones to add in other abilities

So we're gonna cancel the current campaign to do Pathfinder now right?😂

I would love to hear a pathfinder campaign. One thing I loved about c1 was yall learnin and foolin with rules. Plus, theres SO MUCH 5e content out there that it’s no longer an exciting system to listen to (yall do amazing but for me its despite the system not bc of it)

Please please please play these soon

Please play pathfinder this sounds so awesome

I would love a oneshot or campaign with these characters god damn

Skaarl is instantly my favorite fictional character in all media.. I want an animation of this party!! Lol

I really hope we get to see these characters sometime soon! My group has been thinking into pf2e due to all the D&D unrest currently and I had a completely different picture of the system and these two episodes made me way more interested.

would love to see a trinyvale type thing on the main feed in pathfinder

Definitely looking forward to hearing you guys play this new system!

Jake's reaction to Critical Specialization made me think y'all could play Pf2e for "Eldermourne II: The Reckoning" (if it happens). I imagine Hank could do some cool stuff with a guy'sarm! Love to see u encouraging system exploration, great shakeup of the off-week, and really enjoying "Bahumia 2.1: Draggin' it" (WiP).

Would love to listen to y'all play Pathfinder! this is my first in-depth intro to the system and it sounds really fun.

I really hope y’all do more of these and would love to see an exploration of Worlds or Stars Without Number.

cask's voice is like either the dad or the neighbor from fairly odd parents

Wow you guys are so fun to listen to. I found your Patreon from the Pathfinder subreddit and I'm unbelievably excited to follow your pf2e exploits!

I Need to hear murph play this character

a pf2e mixed bag would be dope as fuck tbh

I’m so here for NAPPOD

Emily running a campaign with these three bozos sounds like a wonderful mixed bag and maybe even a next big campaign in the future!

Emily man, she's the fucking coolest. Love all of this research into this game and her builds are incredible. What an amazing person she is

We’re ready, give us the Pathfinder 2e mixed bag we’re READY!!

There's some reason i cant put my finger on that made me curious about pathfinder 2e recently, thanks for putting these out at a serendipitous time.

I love pathfinder...just want to say that if you guys decide to start playing pathfinder more FOR ANY REASON I will fully support it.

YEEES!! I want to see these characters in action already!! XD cant wait for the pathfinder 2e one shot and moooore!! ^_^

Super excited for this happening. Seeing Emily's system mastery in a system like pathfinder would be incredible and pathfinder really makes DMing so much easier in my experience in how creative you can be while not having to wing it on balance like CR often makes you do. Also the system has such strong support for making good fighters and weird little guys so it really caters to Caldwell and Jake. :D

i'm immediately in love with this crew!!! i really hope we get a little mixed bag mini campaign dm'd by emily!!! i'm so excited for this!!!

Fellow goblin lovers! I cannot recommend the short pre-written module called “We Be Goblins” it’s a pathfinder module that goes over the goblin lore, there’s a wedding to cause chaos at, and of course a myriad of fights! It’s a perfect dip into the game but doesn’t take long :) we played it as our first try at 2e and now we’ve been converted for 2 years.

Literally next mkxed bag should be a pathfinder game

The crew should check out "open legend" next, i just started a campaign in it and im loving it so far.

I hope they stay 5e. Adding crunch to a radio style drama wouldn't be great. That said, I ran 3.5/PF1 for forever, and get that a bit more crunch can add texture to a RPG sandwich

I just started learning about Pathfinder 2e because of the whole #OpenDnD situation and I can say I'm pleasently surprised by it and by these posts! Can't wait to hear you all play Pathfinder, I've upped my sub to the mixed bag tier so that I can get in on it!

I use to listen to a podcast called: Pod Called Quest. It was somehow through them (maybe a req) that I found you all, NADDPod. So I for one would LOVE to hear you all play Pathfinder of any edition (or heck, any other ttrpg).

So excited to hear you're experimenting with Pathfinder 2e. I'm playing my first long-term 2e campaign right now, and you'll have a blast. One thing to note: all those little +2 and -1 circumstance changes really add up. You'll be surprised how often they push something from a success to a critical success and vice versa.

Everything I’ve heard about Pathfinder made it seem like it was sooo cool, thanks Emily for making this rundown of some of the basics, I’m gonna go out and buy me some Pathfinder books now!

I so, so desperately want to see this chaotic and terrible trio play. Please.

you made three actual psychos, legit afraid of this group...

As a Riz Gukgak stan, I am ECSTATIC to see Murph play another gun-toting goblin with absolutely no chill.

Murph made adc ziggs

i love it!!!!!! cant wait for u to go into more ttrpgs

NAPFpod 2023

This sounds like so much fun! I need this campaign 👏🏿

Jake sounds like the pillow guy.... But I like him

The characters are fantastic and I love how the PF2 system fleshes them out! Love to see more of this!

I would upgrade immediately if this became a mixed bag campaign

Yes please play these characters on a mixed bag!

Final Fantasy 8 music intensifies

Loved this so much! I've been wanting to move away from D&D for a bit now cause of the OGL drama and have been considering Pathfinder as an option. This was such a great little demo/walkthrough! Thanks Emily! Would love to see some one shots or better yet a full campaign in PF2e!

"Aannnnd" ☝️☝️

I've been catching up since July and I'm finally current with the podcast, this was a real treat to have as my first episode in real time

Mocho man for Merph https://youtu.be/wz-VJl7UkB8

I'm so excited for somthing new!! Please make this a thing

I'm begging for the return of DMily to guide these delightfully off-putting little men along the path of adventure

I want this. I want this so badly.

So im stoked for Emily to DM campaign 3.5

Amazing! Been listening for a little bit, but had to sign up to hear the Pathfinder builds, and as a pf2 player Emily absolutely nailed it! I will say the math is super tight in pf2e, so a bitter pill for me was the little +1 or +2s feeling a little deflating. But they make a lot more sense when you remember that it's also an increased chance to crit! Also it would be incredible to see Wilmer getting Dubious Knowledge for some monster facts.

Would absolutely love to hear these characters and learn a little more about the system alongside y'all similar to how many of us did for D&D

Sword gun is some Bloodborne vibes. Also, adding dexterity to a gun attack is more of a way to show your skill as a gunslinger ie shooting in the chest versus shooting in the leg.

I want a side campaign like trinyvale for this very badly!!

Jake is playing Kronk

Would love to hear you guys play pathfinder! I am super intrigued by the system now.

This was super fun, I'd love to see you all try the system as I've been playing it for the better part of a year now. Its very exciting to see more people trying out the system and if you try it out and don't enjoy it that's okay as well, still happy that you gave it your time. :)

Is the audio sped up for the or anyone else? Having some issues following it lol

Would absolutely love to hear yall play these characters or even just roll up more characters in the system!! (I'd love to hear one that Emily makes for herself as well!)

I know you've gotten a couple ideas for one shots lately but please i want a one shot of this including all your confusion figuring out the rules in game i think it would be hilarious

Y'ALL. I love this. Please do at least a one shot with these absolutely unhinged maniacs!

Very keen to learn more about Pathfinder by listening to you guys play. Do it!

truly so much fun to hear about other systems!! i hope we can hear more Behind The Screens in the future about other ttrpgs! and i would LOVE to hear a one shot using pathfinder 2e and these characters!! new systems can be intimidating but i found Emily's explanation and character creation demo engaging and insightful! it really got me curious and excited about learning more and trying out pathfinder!! thank you guys for such a fun overview!!

This system sounds fun and these characters are SO unhinged, I absolutely want to hear them in a one shot (or more!)

Not Another TableTop Podcast? I'm here for it!

I would love to see these characters in a little journey. You did a great job at taking their concepts and making super unique and creative choices.

So interested to hear this as a one shot!

Love hearing Murph RP a goblin.

When?

This was so fun, I'm definitely stealing counter performance because it's SUCH a TRUE BARD move, so cool! Also context-based initiative as a concept blew my mind! Thanks for making this week's homework, Emily, you're so good at this, I love it! Oneshot would be so fun to hear!

I would kill to see your next campaign played in this system

Pathfinder 2e sounds sick, and it would be awesome to hear you guys give it a shot.

Pathfinder sounds so sick, and hearing our hosts play Pathfinder would be so so sick

This was fantastic! Please announce when the mixed bag would be and I would gladly up my tier for that month! I've been wanting to switch to this and try out Starfinder 2e, so thank you!

We need a game of pathfinder with these characters

I really like Jake's "Deranged Patrick Warburton" character voice.

Love the thought of doing a mini-campaign or a one shot! There’s an ancestry of sentient artistic spiders called the Anadi that for some reason I feel give strong Axford vibes

I am absolutely into this system, I desperately want to hear this adventure of wacky little guys

PLEASE! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a mixed bag Pathfinder game!!!!!!!! I bet you!!!!

I think bringing a host GM that is familiar with the system could be a really fun way to explore this system on the show!

legit might try out pathfinder with some friends! it sounds super cool

This was perfect timing as interest in Pathfinder is increasing for...you know reasons.... (Saying this as someone who knows nothing about Pathfinder and wanting to.)

This was fantastic, I really hope y’all play these characters soon! If this is going to be a new segment (and I definitely think it should be) I’d love to hear about Call of Cthulhu and Warhammer

Absolutely need to see their wacky adventures

We gotta see these characters in action

A truly fantastic overview! I've only played a small amount of Pathfinder 1e (but have a pretty high level experience with other TTRPGs) but wanted to share a couple impressions. Hearing that it the intentionality of the system was being to not have to multiclass was a revelation. The little bit I've played seems to give the power gamer (not a pejorative) a ton of resources. Groups I've been in have really been satisfying for the more mathy gamers I know.

Loovveeeee. Please play these! Especially with what Hasboro/WOTC is doing with D&D, this would be a great pivot!

Absolutely loved this! So interesting and cool! Would love a one shot or something!

❤️

If you guys do more of these I'd love to see you cover 13th Age. That's the system the group of friends I play with are considering switching over to and makes combat seem less sluggish

This was awesome, but I also want to know what character Emily would have made!

ONE SHOT. Plz n thanks 😁

Wizards is going to have a survey for the new ogl. Please let us know naddpods take on it so I can complete the survey in a way that supports naddpod.

I want a Mixed Bag with these oddballs as soon as conceivably possible. I'm so excited to hear this.

I haven’t even finished listening to the main episode yet, but I wanted to highly recommend playing the Pathfinder game Wrath of The Righteous to you guys, it’ll be a great intro to the system and a good way to find out what classes you’re interested in!

It will be nice to see pathfinder approached by comedians. My experience with pathfinder was with a bunch of crunchy rules lawyers and it felt like living through all the cases in dungeon court but without the much deserved punishments.

Oh shit! I am hyped for this. Such a good crunchy system! Seems right up Murph and Emily’s ally due to their enjoyment of 3.5 over 5e

As someone that helped playtest for Pathfinder since 2008, I feel so indulgent listening to you all gush about the rules for Pathfinder. Hope y'all have fun, and now I can start submitting my home rules for Pathfinder when you do more Tortle Tanks

Pathfinder is a ton of fun.

So glad you guys mentioned this. I basically learned 5e from campaign one lol

Yes! So happy you guys are testing this. Do you guys think you'll ever do a warhammer bonus episode? Maybe a wiki-wander?

Absolutely yoked y'all are looking at PF2e

Any of them named Binky?

I haven't listened yet, but nothing in the world would make me happier than if Jan & Troy made a return

Is this because of the D&D OGL issue?
